With the help of the Minnesota Alpha chapter, who gifted Iowa Eta with its very own Cooky-Shine sheet, the evening was a complete success. During the Cooky-Shine, the pledges participated in the Return of The Pledge Pin Ceremony and, in doing this, completed the last steps of pre-initiation. The first initiation ceremony began at 8: 00 0' clock Saturday morning and by 1 :00 that afternoon thitty-six new Pi Beta Phi members proudly and enthusiastically displayed the new symbol of their affiliation, their golden arrows. For Patti MillerJacobi of Waterloo, Iowa, and Edith Steven­ son Fleet of Denver, Colorado, their journey to Des Moines had a very special purpose. Both women took patt in the initia­ tion ceremonies of their daughters, Elizabeth Jacobi and Lee Ann Fleet. On Saturday evening, Pi Phis, both old and new, attended the installation/initiation banquet held at the Hotel Savory. Vicki Strief was toastmistress for the evening. Following dinner, a traditional Candle Lighting Ceremony was per­ formed by Joanne Miller, Iowa Beta President, and Ann Gaukle, Iowa Gamma President. Jean Scott conducted the Installation Ceremony and officially declared the Drake colony, Iowa Eta. For members of the new chapter, this moment seemed almost too good to be true. October 8 marked the day of a new beginning, but also a continuation of the Pi Phi heritage that has become so prevalent in the state of Iowa.

,.. THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI Centers help prepare for standardized tests by SUSAN STOVER

Stanley Kaplan is fast becoming a student's best friend on many college campuses, yet many students will never meet him. Who is this masked man, why is he important, and how did I get to meet him? Read on! Stanley H. Kaplan education centers, named after the man who invented them, are centers designed to help people prepare for various standardized tests. Established in 1938, there are presently over one hundred centers located throughout the United States as well as in Toronto, Canada, Sanjuan, Puerto Rico, and Zurich, Switzerland. The centers offer preparatory courses for about twenry-four different entrance examinations for college and for many types of graduate and professional schools. The center boasts it is "the oldest and largest of its kind in the United States." Its basic approach, according to its brochure, is "the development of fundamental concepts and test-taking skills by three-pronged combination of class lessons, home study, and audiotape rein­ Sue StoYer, VP Mental at North Carolina Beta, chatted with Stonley forcement. Kaplan during hll recent yilit to Duke. Stanley Kaplan began tutoring other students in Brooklyn, N.Y. , when he was in high school. While at City College, Duke Pi Phis have discovered this means of preparation and, where he received the degrees of Bachelor of Science and for the most part, endorse it. Personally, it was a worthwhile Master of Science, Kaplan began to help younger students program for me, and, in meeting Stanley Kaplan, I was given prepare for the SAT and within a couple years had helped an opportunity to understand how one man made tutoring an almost one thousand students. The ftrst center was established unbelievably profttable business. (Incidentally, my score was in New York in 1938 and the Stanley H. Kaplan program has not raised by any amount after having talked to Mr. Kaplan!) been expanding ever since. Several Duke Pi Phis have been introducing themselves to the Stanley Kaplan preparatory course and I was able to intro­ duce myself to the man himself when he visited the Durham, N.C., center in October. Mr. Kaplan was quite amiable and confessed that he had never taken the standardized tests, but that he knew how to explain the concepts behind the tests. He claimed that the best evidence of the results of'the preparatory course is the fact that most enrollments result from recom­ mendations of former students. Sharon Rather, chairman of the Alumnae Advisory Committee for North Carolina Beta, took the course in the fall and agreed that she would recom­ mend the course to others. , 'The course prepared me for how to take the test," Sharon remarked, "and it provided me with a necessary review of mathematical concepts." Frances Johnson, a senior Pi Phi, feels that the Stanley Kaplan course is not necessary for many types of people, but for some it can b~ valuable in the psychological advantage it gives. "It makes you much more relaxed in the actual test because you've been doing almost the same thing for the past four or ftve weeks, " Frances commented. I agree with Frances that the course is worthwhile for certain individuals, but for others, it" is not worth the time and expense.

Surface design is the coloring / patterning of fabric and fiber with dyes, pigments, or manipu­ lation. The theme, "The Artist in Focus," was presented in several multi-media programs. Chairmen of the event were Clare Verstegen, Arrowmont Program Coordinator and SDA member, and Sandy Blain, Director of Arrowmont/ Arrow­ craft. In her keynote lecture, "Complexities, Criticisms and Other Compliments," Lynn Mauser-Bain, resource artist for the fiber program at The Banff Centre, Alberta, Canada, made the sug­ gestion that artists and craftsmen need more mutual support and criticism. Participants were challenged to find time during the conference to give compassionate, constructive and critical information to one another.

Of the twenty-seven different fraternities and sororities represented at the conference, Pi Beta Phi had the largest number of house directors in attendance. The Pi Phi house directors enjoyed meeting together informally at lunch and in the evening to discuss the sessions they had attended and to share ideas.

The birthday of one of Pi Phi's twelve Founders, Nancy Black Wallace, is no ordinary event at Oregon Gamma because this Founder lived in Salem, Ore. , not far from the Willamette University campus. Carolyn Koenig, Vice President of Moral Advancement, seized the opportunity of the moment and turned it into a Fraternity heritage fireside , as well as a fun way for the new fall pledges to learn Fraternity history. The theme this year was "an old-fashioned birthday," and included a huge cake with one hundred thirty-eight candles. But who would blow them all out? Luckily, the famous Pi Phi birthday is shared by one of the newest pledges and the flaming creation was put out in only six attempts amid fears of setting off the fire alarm system.

Increased alumnae support of the Michigan State chapter was evident last fall, not only in the many renovations made to the house decor, but also by the increased presence of alumnae at the chapter house for various Michigan Gamma functions. One such occasion was the chapter's annual Alumnae Auction, when gift and novelty items are auctioned off to alums and chapter members to raise funds for the Alumnae Association. Alums, who make and donate the items, use the money to make improvements in the chapter house. Items purchased at the auction last November included several types of goodies, ranging from banana bread to caramel corn and peanut brittle; Pi Phi paraphernalia, such as wine and silver blue stationery and pin pillows; Christmas items; and handmade stuffed animals. The hot item this year was a pink satin stuffed pig which ended up selling for $50! Thanks to an enthusiastic group of alumnae, the auction was a huge success.
